Haha, nice :)
Down with wargaming.net!

Though this seems to have slightly worse gfx than World of Warships.

It's an MMORTS, not a ship sim.

Oh ok, I never played this, I just assumed it's gonna be like wow.

Lucky break there for wargaming :).

To be fair their games are not simulation games either, they're are stat based mmo's as well.
It's up to the stats if you're gonna hurt/see your opponent or not, not just your skill.

Begger to differ. "Navy Field" is not an RTS but more an RTT with RPG elements, and this sequel will be much more like "World of Warships" than you might think.
I've played many hours on the original "Navy Field" and the only 'building' you do is 'purchasing' new naval vessels, tweaking them and creating small fleets.
World of Warships" isn't a Sim either, in the true sense (you need to play "Silent Hunter 3&4", heavily modded, for that). The real difference between the two will be in presentation and scope. You won't have fleet management in "WoW".
Both will cost real world cash, so while they will be 'free to play" they come with a price tag if you want to get serious. A lot of gamers I know spent a lot of cash on "Navy Field".
